1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

purposeAccumulating evidences implicate the selenium-containing cytosolic glutathione peroxidase, GPx-1, as a determinant of cancer risk and a mediator of the chemopreventive properties of selenium. Since the identification of a well-characterized functional polymorphism named Pro198Leu (rs1050450 C>T) in GPx-1, abundant studies have evaluated the association between Pro198Leu polymorphism and tumor risk in diverse population. But, the available results are conflicting.

methodsTo derive a more precise estimation, we performed a meta-analysis based on 14,372 cases with different tumor types and 18,081 controls from 31 published case-control studies. Published literature from PubMed was retrieved. Crude odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to estimate the strength of the association.

resultsOverall, the results indicated that individuals who carried variant Leu allele (Pro/Leu and Leu/Leu) were associated with an increased cancer risk [odds ratio (OR) = 1.12, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.02-1.23] in a dominant genetic model. In further subgroup analyses, the increased risk of cancer was observed in subgroup of Asians and sample size more than 500 subjects.

conclusionThese results suggest that the GPx-1 Pro198Leo polymorphism contributes to cancer susceptibility through a disturbed antioxidant balance.
